I bought some today!

Cost me £12.50 each from local motor factor!

Just fitted them now and they make so much difference! My droplinks were fk ones that were just battered from running too low, but the mondeo ones re exactly the same size and build!

Nice find J!! Good man!!

Like you say KC .. I couldnt believe what a difference such a cheap fix could make...

It is just the beauty of a cool little Forum full of good guys n girls .. sharing .. not like other Forums where its more like tearing..

I havent claimed any ideas .. i just confirmed that 2003 Mondeo droplinks fit and work.....

They have been used on other Polos and Fabias for years ... nothing new...

Havent a clue how long they are ... didnt measure them ... just know they are shorter.. and have cured my metallic banging noises...

That was the point of the thread....

I dont need to be first in a non-existent competition ..

how does metal become cheaper than plastic ??? The plastic ones look strange ... I'm sure they are as strong as metal but I still dont fancy plastic ones...
